Thats pretty badass. With one pair I'd check to induce a bluff too, but I usually feel like I have to bet with trips. Maybe a combination of the words Scrooge (becuase if you did this on christmas it would totally ruin his day) and pully becuase you're jerking this guy around. Hence, the scroo-pulley.

It's called the 1/2 punch.

Ha, awesome.

Looks like this one is wrapped up. You need to patent another move though so we can call it the soiler.

I like it overall but I think a lot of players will play like this without a draw. I see 7x play like this a lot and I doubt he'd bet the river. THere's also some smaller pocket pairs or like 88-99 who could play like this. Is there any chance he bluffraises the river with a missed draw or checked behind because he hit better trips or filled up? These are kind of remote but things to consider nonetheless.
